[The Mac]

I will get a full review up for this later, but quickly reading through it I noticed your promo's need desperate work. Randy and Edge arguing, the commentary throughout the night, the crowd cheering Helms before he even turned face, all pretty painful to read. I am just saying that your promos are very shabby and need looking at. I dont mean offence by it, I just want you to improve. Matches were decent though.

 

[rosewt01]

The crowd cheered for Helms becasue he had overcome a carer threatining injury.
But I know I need to work on my promo's.
